Honestly, I think that helped us out a lot. It definitely got us focused more and really realize what we have to do game-in and game-out, especially if we want to make that run in the playoffs.

He's definitely a great ballplayer. It's really nice that we do have that inside presence more this year. He's just totally developed his game.

It is strange the way it worked out, you know, that my dad was able to be there to see it. But as soon as I got to the locker room, I had to call my mom and the rest of my family because it isn't every day you hit a big shot to win a game and they don't know about it. That part of it was definitely a little strange.

And then there are comparisons to Dido. I don't sound anything like her! Dido can't sing.

Does taking an ironing board from a hotel count? I walked straight out with it, and pillows too. I had my reasons.

There's been no official offers but I went to a lot of games and talked to a lot of coaches. There's a lot of good situations for me in Division I-AA but I'm still talking to a lot of Division I schools.

They all have such good hand-eye coordination because they play basketball, American football and baseball. Playing goalkeeper comes more naturally to them because they can use these special skills.

It showed me what they think of me and how they think I can turn the program around. It meant a lot to me. Anywhere you go, you want to feel wanted. I had a feeling through this entire process that I might end up going there. It was in the back of my mind that it was a school I knew I loved.

No doubt he will be set free, for Lord Mansfield keeps a Black in his house which governs him and the whole family.

It was tough, knowing there was Division I schools where I could have walked on or had opportunities to play Division I-AA. They call you a student-athlete; sometimes the student part has to come first. The environment up there and the academics really mean a lot to me. A lot of people think I'm crazy for passing up those opportunities, but I really feel at peace that I made the right decision.

I used to shop in loads of Oxfam-type shops, but everything I bought was horrible. I don't think I'm very good at bargains.

I got this letter of the blue one day, ... It said, 'We like your album. We've used this track. Hope you don't mind, and hope you like it.'

I'm going to start visiting some of those schools and narrow it down. I'm still up in the air.

It's been the best four years of my life. When I walked off the court that last time, I kept saying I can't believe it's over. It's one of the toughest things I've had to do.

We are very proud of you.

If somebody told me we would beat those teams ahead of time, I would be pretty positive about it but everyone else in South Fayette would say I was crazy. Last year, we were a mediocre team. This year, we're playing real hard and I knew we could surprise a lot of people.

It's much better when I go out with my mates and we stop talking about me like I'm some sort of egomaniac. It's great when we can just have a drink.

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down, While I'm so afraid to fail so I won't even try, Well, how can I say I'm alive?
